Q2 2026 Quarterly Performance Review
Discipline. Execution. Consistency.
At GAR Capital, every trade alert is documented, every result is transparent, and every month is archived for our members.
As we close the second quarter of 2026, we're proud to share our complete performance review covering April through June.
Our objective has never been to chase perfection.
Instead, we focus on disciplined execution, sound risk management, and building a repeatable trading process designed for long-term consistency.
Q2 2026 By The Numbers
Over the course of the second quarter, GAR Capital closed 31 documented trades.
Quarterly Performance
- 🏆 25 Winning Trades
- 🟡 1 Breakeven Trade
- ❌ 5 Losing Trades
- 📊 31 Closed Trades
- 🎯 80.6% Win Rate
- 🛡️ 83.9% Non-Losing Rate
Every trade included in these statistics was shared with members in real time and documented through our monthly recap reports.
April: Building Momentum
April proved to be one of the strongest months of the year.
The portfolio finished with:
- 12 Winning Trades
- 1 Losing Trade
- 92.3% Win Rate
Several positions produced exceptional moves, including:
- Intel (INTC) — Over +400% ITM
- STMicroelectronics (STM) — Over +450% ITM
- Microsoft (MSFT) — Peaked above +1,500%
- Palantir (PLTR) — Finished over +100% ITM
While no trader captures every contract at its absolute peak, April showcased what can happen when high-conviction setups align with favorable market conditions.
May: Risk Management Took Center Stage
No trading strategy wins every month.
May served as an important reminder that successful trading isn't about avoiding losses—it's about managing them responsibly.
The month finished with:
- 7 Winners
- 3 Losses
- 70% Win Rate
Market conditions became significantly more challenging, and several option contracts expired worthless.
Rather than increasing position sizes or deviating from our trading plan, we remained disciplined.
Risk controls stayed intact.
Drawdowns remained contained.
Most importantly, the process never changed.
Professional traders are defined just as much by how they manage losing periods as they are by their biggest winning trades.
June: Returning To Consistency
June reflected the strength of maintaining discipline through changing market conditions.
The portfolio finished with:
- 6 Winners
- 1 Breakeven Trade
- 1 Loss
- 75% Win Rate
One LYFT position was successfully managed back to breakeven after giving back earlier unrealized gains, demonstrating the importance of active trade management and capital preservation.
The quarter's only June loss came from an NVDA position that ultimately expired worthless.
Outside of that trade, the portfolio continued producing steady gains across multiple sectors while remaining disciplined in both entries and exits.
Consistency Over Excitement
Perhaps the most important statistic from the quarter isn't the largest winner.
It's consistency.
Out of 31 total trades, 26 finished profitable or without a loss, resulting in an 83.9% non-losing rate.
While social media often highlights only the biggest percentage gains, sustainable portfolio growth is built through:
- Consistent execution
- Disciplined risk management
- High-probability trade selection
- Repeatable processes
Those principles remain at the core of everything we do at GAR Capital.
Looking Ahead
Every new month brings a different market environment.
Past performance never guarantees future results, and every trade must continue earning its place through preparation, research, discipline, and proper execution.
As we enter the third quarter of 2026, our priorities remain unchanged:
- Continue identifying high-conviction trading opportunities.
- Continue managing risk with discipline.
- Continue documenting every trade with complete transparency.
- Continue improving one trade at a time.
